  • Summary

  • This episode is part of the Presence project: Presence: Fixing culture starts with your calendar, not your office


    In the 2000s a book called Fish! A remarkable way to boost morale and improve results became a bestseller. A small book, it was often used by companies accompanying a video of the same name. Together the two told a story of the culture of the fish market in Seattle, a noisy, bombastic place, but a place that was filled with joy. I first encountered Fish when a firm came to pitch to me when I was working in publishing. They told me that their culture was Fish.

    There are a few things that stood out from it. The idea of intentionally designing culture isn’t new but this seemed to be explicitly linking culture, emotion and mood.

    There were 4 principles of Fish

    • Play
    • be there
    • make their day
    • choose your attitude
